Related: About this forumHarry Reid Letter: VERY Important Part!!!
Reid wrote a blistering letter to Comey Sunday, accusing the FBI chief of holding back explosive information about Donald Trumps close Russian ties while possibly violating the Hatch Act by reviving the Clinton email investigation.Your actions in recent months have demonstrated a disturbing double standard for the treatment of sensitive information, with what appears to be a clear intent to aid one political party over another, Reid wrote, adding that through Comeys partisan actions, you may have broken the law.
[Y]our highly selective approach to publicizing information, along with your timing, was intended for the success or failure of a partisan candidate or political group.
In my communications with you and other top officials in the national security community, it has become clear that you possess explosive information about close ties and coordination between Donald Trump, his top advisors, and the Russian government - a foreign interest openly hostile to the United States, which Trump praises at every opportunity, he said. I wrote to you months ago calling for this information to be released to the public...and yet, you continue to resist calls to inform the public of this critical information.

(1,494 posts)1. And I'm sure Comey will continue to stonewall on this information
And -- do you think that the M$M will take a look at this very important part of his letter regarding the "explosive information about close ties and coordination between Donald Trump, his top advisors and the Russian government" (gee whiz -- isn't that a CRIME???) and request information????
